Today we celebrate one of the greatest bands to ever come out of Australia, INXS, being honoured with the Ted Albert Award for Outstanding Services to Australian Music at the APRA Music Awards on April 29 in Sydney 🇦🇺
For nearly FIVE decades, INXS haven’t just represented Australia on the world stage…
they’ve OWNED it. 🌍
From the sweaty pub circuit beginnings in Sydney in 1977…
to global domination with albums like Kick, this band rewrote the rulebook for what an Aussie act could achieve internationally.
✨ 7 US Top 10 singles
✨ Over 75 MILLION albums sold
✨ Multiple ARIA, BRIT, MTV & Grammy nominations
And let’s be honest… songs like
“Need You Tonight”, “New Sensation” and
Never Tear Us Apart
aren’t just hits… they’re part of our DNA. ❤️
⸻
Formed as The Farriss Brothers, the magic combination of
Michael Hutchence
Andrew Farriss
Jon Farriss
Tim Farriss
Garry Beers
Kirk Pengilly
created something lightning-in-a-bottle — a sound and energy that still resonates today.
⸻
And here’s the thing…their legacy isn’t slowing down.
In 2025, “Never Tear Us Apart” was voted #1 in triple j’s Hottest 100 of Australian Songs 🏆
Their music continues to feature everywhere — from major global campaigns to upcoming films — proving that INXS are as relevant NOW as ever.

đź’¬ As Jenny Morris said:
“Few bands have ever left people happily gasping for more the way INXS do.”
And she’s right.
This honour isn’t just about the past…it’s about a legacy that continues to inspire generations of fans — including ALL of us here.

And we also wait to see if INXS are on the Induction List for 2026 to be Inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. What an exciting year this is becoming for INXS and their beloved fans.
